Shining woke to the familiar bugle call at 6am. It wasn’t more than a few seconds until he heard the voice of his new commanding officer.

“Wake the fuck up, lets go! Get off those beds, move it!’

Shining jumped off his bunk bed as soon as he could. He landed on the floor, where his aching bruised muscles immediately gave way in his forelegs. Shining face planted right into the floor, but quickly regained his composure. Thankfully, everyone was staring directly ahead of their beds as if they were statues, so not many other ponies actually saw the faceplant.

Shining’s commanding officer walked through the aisles inspecting everyone. Shining realized that he didn’t even know his abuser’s name, but now was hardly the time to ask.

“Alright! That’s what I’m talking about. You know the drill, get to it!”

Everypony immediately started going to work, making their beds in a precisely folded way. Putting on their uniforms in a precise way. Thankfully, these were the skills that Shining had been taught about during his initialization week. Shining followed suit and made his bed and put on his uniform. It was hardly a few minutes later the CO (commanding officer) started inspection as everypony stood like statues in front of their bed.

The CO took note of Shinings bed. “What the hell is this, faggot?!?” The lieutenant said, pointed to blood stains in the sheets and blanket that must’ve accumulated during the night. Without pause, the lieutenant put his forehooves under the mattress and flipped the entire cheap mattress, sheets and blankets onto the floor. “We have CLEAN sheets in this platoon, faggot! What happened!?!? Did somepony pop your virgin ass cherry? Don’t you ever bleed on my mattress or my sheets again, faggot!”

Shining replied in the only way he knew how, “Sir, yes sir!”

“What are you waiting for, queermo? Pick that fucking mattress up!”

“Sss-sir, yes sir!” Shining replied. He immediately went to pick up his mattress and restore it onto the bunk bed, leaving the bloodied sheets and blanket on the floor, unsure what to do with it.

“What’s the matter with you, private! You take it so much in the ass that shit got shoved into your brains!?! Take that to the laundry hut and get new bed dressings. THE REST OF YOU, form up outside. You’ll all be doing push ups until Shining is done making his bed.
Shining knew this was going to be a bad day, a bad week, a bad month, a bad year, and possibly a bad, shortened life. He scrambled to change out his sheets from the laundry hut as soon as he could, but it would be at least another 5 minutes until he could get there, come back, and make his bed.

Shining rushed outside, where a good portion of the platoon had already collapsed from pushups. “So nice of you to join us, private! Platoon, get on your hooves! Alright, stallions. Today you’ll be running squad training. Get with your squad and follow your leaders instructions. Dismissed!”

As soon as they were dismissed, Shining received a few glares and light punches as stallions walked past him pretending to accidentally ‘bump’ into them. He knew it would only be a precursor for what would happen latter. Shining formed up with his squad. Around 10 other ponies were in Shining’s newly assigned squad.

Shining’s day had been filled with formation jogging, running, rope climbing, only to be followed by more formation jogging. Shining had been forced to perform more physical exercise in his first day in a squad than his entire week at orientation.

However, much to Shining’s liking, the day of training had finished at around 5pm. During orientation week, Shining hadn’t had a single moment to do as he pleased, but now, he had the rest of the afternoon to do as he pleased before dinner time.

Shining knew what was going to happen to him again tonight if he didn’t take any action. He needed the help of a superior officer. Shining made his way to the administration building. In front of the building was a courtyard, with a large sculpture of Celestia on her two hind legs. The doors of the building were massive, and decorated with Celestia’s cutie mark. Shining went inside, and on the floor of the foyer was a massive Celestia cutie mark, made out of marble stone within the floor.

Shining made his way to the office of the highest official at the school, Sergeant Major Stone Flank. Much to Shining’s surprise, the Sergeant Major was actually in his office, apparent through the frosted glass on the door. Shining let out a sigh, and worked up his nerves. After a few long seconds, Shining knocked on the door lightly three times.

“Enter!” Replied Stone Flank.

Shining opened the door, and saw Stone Flank’s head immediately arch back in surprise. He must not get many fresh recruits entering his office.

“Yes?” Asked Stone Flank.

Shining was nervous. “Ssssir, I have...You see…” Shining let out a sigh. “My commanding officer and my squad leader raped me in the shower room last night.” Shining said.

Stone Flank rolled his eyes and remained silent. A few moments of silence passed. “Is that all?” Stone Flank finally responded. A few more moments of silence passed. “What’s your name, son?”
“Shining. Shining Armor, sir.”

“Oh...Hmmm…” Stone Flank shifted several papers on his desk as if he was looking for something. Finally, he found a sheet of paper with some writing on it.

“I’ve heard about you, private. Your CO here says that you came here without a holy book of Celestia. Is that true, son?”

“Well, yes, I…” Shining replied before being interrupted.

“You what? You an Acelestiist? You doubt our creator, Celestia? Or worse, you a zebra sympathizer, son? Do you believe in the Zoran? Whats your story, son?”

“Nnn-no! Of course I believe in Celestia! I just didn’t think to bring my book…”

Stone Flank promptly responded. “Oh! So you’re a Celestia believer, are you? Well lets put that to the test. What verse is this: Trust in CELESTIA with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.”

“Oh no….” Shining silently thought to himself. He finally vocalized his response. “I’m...not sure, sir.”

Stone Flank quickly closed his distance with Shining, and grabbed him by the throat, choking off his airway. “That’s Graybeard 3:5, you lying sack of shit! Everyone knows that, you fucking faggot! You’re not going to last two months here, non believer. If you don’t accept Celestia into your heart ASAP, I’ll make sure you don’t leave this place alive, faggot.”

Stone Flank throw Shining into the corner of the room. While Shining was recuperating from the impact, Stone Flank quickly retrieved an item from a drawer in his desk. Stone Flank got within close proximity of Shining before his eyes were able to focus fully again.

Shining looked up and noticed Stone Flank towering over him. Shining felt a sharp blade against his cheek. “Get to work, queermo.” Shining Flank said with an aggressive tone.

Shining noticed how Stone Flank had positioned his penis near his mouth. Shining watched for a few briefs seconds as it became more and more erect with each heartbeat. “He couldn’t possibly mean…” Shining thought to himself.

“I feel teeth, you feel blade. Now get to it, homo!” Stone Flank commanded.

Shining was in complete disbelief about his situation. But he knew he didn’t have a choice. Reluctantly, Shining closed his eyes and inserted Stone Flanks penis into his mouth. Shining went back and forth, knowing that the faster he did this, the faster it would be over.

“That’s right. You keep going, son. Oooh yeah….” Stone Flank said in a deep tone. “When I finish, you swallow, understand? Ooooh...One drop gets on the floor, and I will fucking cut you!”

Shining kept going, trying to think of anything but this. Many things flashed into his mind during that short time. One particularly interesting thought was how he was going to force this onto his sister the minute he mouth was large enough to accommodate him. This whole situation was all her fault, and he would make her pay for this one day.

Stone Flank continued to make grunting noises as he used a forehoof to smash Shinings head towards Stone Flank’s cock. Shining gagged and coughed as the penis was forced back into his throat. He tried to pull his head back to clear his airway, but Stone Flank’s hoof was forcing the back of his head forward, making any sort of retreat impossible.

Shining tried crying out for help, but the only voice he made was similar to humming. Shinings arms began flailing as he was running out of breath in his lungs. The pain in his chest was becoming unbearable.

“Oh yeah, that’s it….that’s it!!!” Stone Flank’s cock unleashed a full load of horse cum directly down Shining’s throat. Stone Flank continued pushing Shining’s head into his cock harder than ever. After a few seconds, he released his grip.

Shining withdrew his head as quickly as he could. The back of his smacked the corner wall as he began coughing and gasping for breath. Never had he felt so helpless, so violated. It was just as bad as the night before in the shower room. A few seconds passed before Shining looked up and made eye contact with Stone Flank.

“Get the fuck out of my office, homo.”

And with that, Shining got up on his hooves and left the office. As traumatized as he was, Shining realized that he just gained some valuable information. Shining knew what sort of things he would have to do in order to climb the ranks.
